          Appeal No. 2002-0097                                                        
          Application No. 09141,088                                                   


          computer and, therefore, Anupam cannot teach such a message                 
          addressed to “the at least first and second client computers,” as           
          claimed.                                                                    


               Accordingly, since there appears to be no reason for the               
          artisan to have combined the applied references and, even if so             
          combined, the instant claimed subject matter does not appear to             
          be obtained, we will not sustain the rejection of claims 1-5, 7-9           
          and 11 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.                                               
               The examiner’s decision is reversed.                                   
                                      REVERSED
